Fine./Fine.. 100pp, 26 duotone illustrations. "Mark Steinmetz' "15 Miles to K-Ville" is a poetic journey around the outskirts of K-Ville: a fictional town somewhere between Knoxville, Tennessee and Athens, Georgia, where graves dot the terrain and a sense of forbidding hangs heavy in the air. This collection of darkly humorous and melancholy portraits and landscapes date from the early 1990s when the American photographer was moving between these two cities. "I love the South for its warmth and chaos. The vegetation down here grows rampant; the light is softened by humid air. The people are for the most part friendly and they are comfortable in their bodies. They tend to be more open to being photographed by a stranger. The unexpected happens here a lot."

With a Rolling Stones timeline, discography, and photographers' biographies. "The kind of fame and success The Rolling Stones have achieved in their fifty-years-and-counting career is without parallel. With their bluesy rock 'n' roll and mesmerizing off and onstage presence, the Stones redefined the music of the 1960s and 1970s, and paved the way for rock as we know it today. They also set the standard for how a rock band should look and behave. Produced in close collaboration with the band, this book charts the Stones' remarkable history and outrageously cool lifestyle in over five hundred pages of incredible images and illustrations - many previously unseen, by the likes of David Bailey, Peter Beard, Cecil Beaton, Bob Bonis, Anton Corbijn, Annie Leibovitz, Gered Mankowitz, Helmut Newton, Norman Parkinson, Bent Rej, and Ethan Russell that have been gathered from archives all over the world. Unprecedented access to the Rolling Stones' own archives in New York and London adds an equally extraordinary, more private side to their story. This massive (20 x 20 x 6") undertaking featuring new essays from award-winning writers David Dalton, Waldemar Januszczak, and Luc Sante along with a foreword written by President Bill Clinton is Mick, Keith, Charlie, and Ronnie's official photographic record."
